Windows Services are long-running executable applications that run in its own Windows
session, which then has the ability to start automatically when the computer boots and
also can be manually paused, stopped or even restarted.
Following are the steps to create a service :-
1. Create a project of type gWindows Serviceh.
2. If you see the class created it is automatically inheriting from
“System.ServiceProcess.ServiceBase”.
3. You can override the following events provided by service and write your
custom code. All the three main events can be used that is Start, stop and
continue.
protected override void OnStart(string[] args)
{
}
protected override void OnStop()
{
}
protected override void OnContinue()
{
}
4. Now to install the service you need to do run the install util exe.
